Henry
J. Pankey, a high school principal from Laurinburg, has been hired to

Niedzialek didn't elaborate on her plans, but said they would be in the
field of education.

N.Y.
He graduated from the N.C. School of the Performing Arts in
Winston-Salem, earned his master's degree in speech and drama from the
University of Maryland and earned a graduate diploma of supervision and

The Durham Public Schools also has named Carrington Middle School
Principal Nancy Hester as executive director of professional growth and
development. She has been with the system for 21 years.
Hester graduated from Campbell College and earned her master's degree
from N.C. Central University.
She received the system's Wachovia Principal of the Year Award for
1995-96, serves as a consultant for other middle schools in the Triangle
and serves on the State Superintendent Advisory Board.
She will start her new job after the school year ends in June.
